Preventing the Birth of Children with Disabilities: Parents’ Attitudes in the UK & in Saudi Arabia

Advances in DNA technology mean that prenatal tests can be offered for a growing number of conditions. But what conditions are serious enough to justify prenatal testing and the possible termination of a pregnancy? Is there widespread agreement between people about this, or lots of different views? Researchers from Leeds, UK and Riyadh, Saudi Arabia sought the views of several hundred men and women about prenatal testing for 30 different conditions. This presentation will discuss the results of the study and the different and similar views provided.
